Sydney Window Tinting Group Buy - From Only $150 Per Car


Recommended Posts

That looks so much better than before :happy:

Has anyone had troubles with the authorities with 15% tint on their windows. I wanna get mine done in 15% but don't wanna get done for it and have to pull it all back off.

Might give Greg a ring and organise to get mine done.

Yep.. im loven it!

NO troubles for me so far.. lol.. *knocks on wood*

so what is the legal limit of % you can get for the windows in NSW?

I can't decide between the 15 or 30, is there a middle ground thats darker than 30% but still legal?

cheers

ps booked in for next week

  • 5 weeks later...

As far as i know 35% light throughput is legal for your front windscreen

darker is ok for rear windows.

reflective vs non reflective which is better?

i take it that since it is the 30th this great offer is over? also would seeing how alot of you got the illegal 15% tint would that void insurance?

Edited by shir33

I have spoken to Greg and this offer is still available.

The closing date for this group buy has been extended to December 31st 2006

Hey btw when you get a chance to get pinkslips done,

Do they check the percentage of the tint? to see if its legal or not?

Because I dont have tint at the moment... but I recently got pinkslip done for rego, even though I didnt pass because of tyres, i saw the guy with some gadget thing and it had tint on the side of it.

Wonder what was that?

Maybe that was just for something else.

I plan to get mine done next month before summer hits

I have never heard of anyone checking tints during a pink slip

Does anyone have inside shots of the 15% tint?

Haha i dont have my camera with me and i park undercover i will this afternoon before i leave, then i will post it up tonight.

But its really not that dark, at night if there is no lights there is.. but other then that its perfect because my car gets so hot in summer!

For those that Are interested here is a section from the RTA about window tinting.

I have attached the full Vehicle Standards Information as well.

Authorised Examiners at Authorised Inspection Stations (AIS, 'pink slip' stations) are required to check window tinting as part of the annual safety check inspection.

Tinted film that is damaged, bubbled, discoloured or that has deteriorated in any way that adversely affects the drivers view must be removed. Film residue (ie. left-over film adhesive etc.) must also be removed.

Rear vision mirrors must be fitted to both sides of a motor vehicle if the VLT of any side or rear window is less than 70%

Since 1 August 1994, NSW law has required that newly tinted side and rear windows maintain a VLT of at least 35%. When replacing window tinting which provides less than 35% VLT (ie. tint applied prior to 1 August 1994), the new window tinting must provide at least 35%VLT.

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
